I hav used commitProperties() in the past. Although some people will
use commitProperties to call createChildren() if new children are needed
to be created.
However, I'd be cautious about creating children based on the
update_complete event. It seems like an unnecessary way to force yet
another full render of the component..

Hi,
I've been trying to find the correct 'place' to create new components
after the parent component is UPDATE_COMPLETE.
During initialisation, we create child components in
*createChildren()* but where/ when should we create them for e.g. in
response to a mouseOver or a mouseClick event?
Is it simply 'ok' to *this.addChild( *myNewButton *)* in a MOUSE_EVENT
function handler or should I be setting some dirty flag to trigger off
an invalidation and then add the button in a lifecycle override function?
Thanks,
Nick
